A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I now downvote most Reddit meta content if it's not constrained to a Reddit specific community. I see it as bad for the health of the site if every community becomes focused on Reddit drama.

I enjoy Reddit drama sometimes, but it can't be so much of the front page and it needs to be using appropriate communities so that people can just unsubscribe if they want to.

Reddit drama should be constrained in their respective communities. It's getting out of hand.
